Demorest'i Monthly.
The enterprising publisher of this popular
Magazine is first in the field in announcing,
among the inducements to subscribers for
the coming year, the finest premium ever yet
offered for a singlo suhsoription to any maga
zine in this or any other country. It ootisists
of a copy, rctuilcd at ten dollars, of Mrs. Lil
ly M. Spencer's great picture of a "Pio nic
on Tun FouHTH of July," the engraving
of which artists wcro scut for, eptciully from
Europo, to complete,
"Dcmoresfc'f, Monthly" is in itself by far
the most complete and attractive Maguzino
for ladies published iu this country, and re
quires little extra inducement to persuade
them to* becotno subscribers. It is really a
saving of money, however, to pay three dol
lars, und get in addition so valuable a premi
um.?and Mr. Domorest will undoubtedly
find his list doubled on the strength of it.?

and the nogroevi, about fifteen hundred iti

and razors, assembled and wero addressed b?
their leaders, who used the most infiammato
ry language. Tho whites orowded around t<
hear what was being said and ono accidental
ly trod upon the foot of a negro. Just ne tlu
altercation which provoked this occasion wat
concluded, a pistol shot was fired, which wai
followed by a general firing of guns and pis
tole. The negroes dispersed rapidly. Ado
tatchmcnt of United States troops had beec
sent to the vicinity by request of tho Majoi
previous to tho riot, but vhoy took no part it

An uni'-unlly largo crowd, composed most
by of negroes, assembled in this village on
Monday. Thoro is good roeson for tho b?>,
Hof that special efforts had been marte by
certain parties to sccuro this .result As tho
season was vory favorable for work in tho cot
tou fields, tho planters were very anxious that
tho opportunity should bo improved, for the
benefit of the growing crop. Tho reply modo
by tho nogrcos generally was, tlint "they wero
obliged to go to tho Court IIouso to seo about
matters." As an evidonoo of concorted ac
tion, tho fact may bo stated, that as many as
sixty in a body passed tho rcsidcuoo of a oiti
zen, on tho outskirts of tho Village marching
in double file,, under the command of a leader,
a good many of whom wcro armed with guns. 1
Their expectation was, as has been ascertain
ed, that arms would bo given out to thorn,
and that they would bo organized as compan
ies, upon tho occurrence of certain contingen
cies Serious threats had been uttered by a
uumbor of them, apprehensions wcro cuter
tai ned that trouble would ensue. Tho result
did not confirm expectations. A moro quiet
or orderly crowd has never been seen in this
Village At au early hour of the day, those
who had been instrumental in promoting ex
eitemcnt among tho negroes, woro givon to
understand that in tho ovont of a collision,
they would be held to a striot accountability.
Tho Towu Council ordered tho Marshal to .
keep rho side-walks cleared. This timely j
precaution obviated tho difficulties, which j
might have arisen from the insolence of tho!
negroes, they having on provious occasiou
manifested a disposition to block up the side
walks, so as to compel the citizens to turn in- j
to the broad street, in order to walk through
the village. The Ordinauco recently adopt
ed by tho Council and pested iu all parts of
the Village, threatening tho penalties of tho
law against all persons disturbing tho peace,
by our sing, fighting, vulgarity or drunkenness)
exerted a most salutary influcnco. The fo
menter? of disturbance wero griovously disap- ?
poiutcd. Nothing occurcd during the entire
day, to mar tho quiet of this peacoful comtuu- !
nity. Yet, certain partios have declared that
thoy "will carry their point at lust." Should
thoy succeed, the eousequenco will fall upon
their own heads. So far as tho citizens of
this District are concernod, thoro is a cherish
ed desire and purpose io preserve that good
order for which this community has always
boon distinguished. Facts constitute a tri
umphant answer to tlio falsehoods which
have boon so industriously poured forth from
'Headquarters."

The End of the Income Tax.?It may
not bo generally known, though tho fact will
bo of interest to most incorno taxpayers, that,
as the rcvonuo law now stands, the tax on in
oomcs will ooaso to bo collected after next
year. An amendment to the 19th scotion of
tho law adopted in 1867, is as follows :
"Thnt tho taxes on incomes herein im
posed shall be lovicd on the 1st day of March,
and bo duo and payable on or before the 80th
day of April in each year until 1870, and no
longer."
Unless, theroforo, Congress by special on
